The only weapon of choice you have in your spiritual battle is the Sword of the Spirit. This is the only item that you can use against Satan, himself. You must keep this weapon with you at all times, or you have nothing to fight back with. Now we just need to know what the Sword of the Spirit truly is....
Ephesians 6:17 says ," ...the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God."
So now we know what it is, and now we know how to build up and strengthen our sword, but I want you to take a closer look at this verse. Most people would read this verse and think that the "entire" Bible is the Sword, but the original Greek word that Paul used in this verse was "Hrema" which means "word, as in utterance" or the english definition "saying".
What I believe Paul was trying to say is that EVERY SINGLE VERSE is a sword in itself! Everything verse we read and speak out of the Bible is a sword that can defeat Satan and his demons. You must always read the word to keep your "swords" ready to attack and win the battles that Satan puts against you.
Before we continue I want you to know that, along with every kind of sword, there are also different kinds of verses that are designed for different battles. For example: Psalms 91:5 would be great for dealing with fear, but would be useless for dealing with stealing. You just can't use any verse to deal with everything, but you must know what verse to use and when to use it. That is why we must daily indulge ourselves in the precious Word everyday.
With the full armor of God covering you, and the precious Sword of the Spirit in your hand, you have nothing to fear, for when God is with you, who can be against you? Romans 8:31
I pray that you continue to strengthen up yourself and walk out into the battlefield with your chest held high, and your spirit higher. With God by your side, you will have nothing to fear. Walk boldly and declare the good news, and start defeating the Darkness and the one who controls it, in Jesus' name!!!!
Have a blessed week and start using your sword to the best of it's ability!!!! Amen!!!
